Hi All,
I will be upgrading my system soon, as you can see my config is in my signature... I want to upgrade my RAM, GFX card and get a 1TB HDD.
These are the questions in my mind.
1)Since i'll be selling my 8600GT and the 2x1 GB 667 DDR2 RAM sticks, How much would i expect from them? I assume that the warranty in the 8600GT is over since it's been 3 years since i bought it.And the RAM still is under warranty
2)For the GFX card i'm in a dilema to choose b/w the ATI 4850 or the Nvidia 250 GTS. Since my budget for theGFX card is ~7K. I am more biased for the ATi card as its cheaper and the performance is the same.
3)Also my motherboard chipset is Nvidia 650i Ultra, so is it true that i should choose a Nvidia card only or is it a rumour that the ATI card will underperform in an NVidia chipset?
4)Which 1TB HDD do i choose? I'm looking at the WD Green with 64 MB Cache. It costs ~3K and that is my budget
5)I'll be upgrading to a 4GB DDR2 RAM so any suggestions on that? I would prefer a VFM RAM.
I will be buying the compoents from Bangalore, and my Overall Budget is ~12-13k, considering i get around 4K for my GFX Card + RAM
